I've dusted it off and powered it on this weekend. It still works (RTC

You may want to have a close look at the electrolytic capacitors.
A few months ago I had to repair some of the damage done by
a leaking capacitor.  Fortunately I don't need the signals on the
parallel port, but I do use the serial console, and thus had to fix
the eaten RXD trace.

In the worst case, you can just buy a new A1200 board off eBay for 70 Euros:

Mine is an A4000 ;-)

Not sure if anyone re-made the A4000 board yet, but you can buy a new A3000 board
already, including AGA:
